I feel for you; I have had this for about 12 yrs now, it seemed as though I woke up one day and couldnt' get out of bed, then the pain started, I have been put on all kinds of med's that really don't seem to help and if they do it is only for a little bit, if you have any questions plz let me know, I am here for you, if you need anyone to talk to or any questions you may have, maybe I could help, I hate to see anyone suffer from this horrible disease that no one believe in or don't understand.

I have had it for 12 yr;s and been on every med you can think of one or two of them almost made me kill me and my son ; going to sleep at the wheel , going into head on traffic, Thank God my Mom was behind me , we were coming back from a banquet dinner and my son rode with me, he was 8 at the time and was yelling Mom, Mommy, Mom are you ok, Mommom wants you to pull over, please Mom, pull over, we had to leave my car parked along the road and come back to get it,

I went and bout 3 different massager's one that sit's in a chair and two for just you neck, I have started to use them all again, because I am so sick of the med's, you are either doped up or te med's give you horrible side effects, it hurts to lay on these massagers but it does work as well as soma/ which is not addicting, Do you belong to a group that get together, that is what I am looking for, going to get massages helps as well , but to expensive for me that is a luxury, and a chiropractor is another great way to relieve pain, how did yours come along, when did you notice and what happened , did you have other out side thing's that contributed to maybe you getting this disease ; me I have been in 7 MVA, but I don't believe that is what it is I think it is all STRESS. I would love to know what you think.View Thread
